About Duck Life

Description

Duck Life is a fun adventure game developed by Wix Games where you train your duck for races! To improve your duck, practice each discipline separately.

A long time ago, you were ạn owner of a huge farm and earned loads of money a year. Unfortunately, one day, a tornado came along and destroyed everything. The only thing left is a single duck egg. Why don’t you train your duckling into a racing duck to earn money and rebuild your farm?

Strict Training

Before joining the official races, you need to take part in training courses as a variety of minigames that include running, swimming, and flying to help your duck improve.

  • Running Training: In this training course, the duck has to run on the flat plain. However, there are many rocks rolling toward it. Therefore, you need to control the duck to jump as high as possible to avoid them. Don’t forget to collect as many coins as possible. You should practice running regularly to accumulate as many experience points as possible to increase your running level or speed during the race.
  • Swimming Training: In this minigame, the cute duck has to jump into the water and practice swimming. This is an important skill to win the race. While swimming, you can see a variety of obstacles such as a flagged boat, a ferry, a sailboat, an iceberg, a stone post, and an island. Therefore, you need to press the up and down arrow keys to jump or dive. If you see a flagged boat, a ferry, or a sailboat, you need to jump as high as possible to overcome them. For an iceberg, a stone post, or an island, you should dive down to evade them. Do your best to gather as many coins as possible. After a swimming training course, you will gain a lot of experience points. These XP goes to your swimming level or speed in water during the race.
  • Flying Training: In this minigame, the duck stands on the hill and jumps down the slope to fly. Your mission is to drag the screen to change its flying direction. Take control of the duck to fly up or down to collect coins. Its flying speed will decrease gradually and finally, the duck will fall into the water. Therefore, do your best to get as many coins as possible before it drops. This flying course will help you gain many experience points as well as increase your flying level or speed in the sky while racing.
